Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 30, 1972.

The colours are taken from the County Görz, to which the area historically belonged. The rose is taken from the city of Lienz and also symbolises the fact that the village is known as a Blumendorf (flower-village).

Literature : Köfler and Beimrohr, 1995
